When Doctors Miss the Signs of an Illness
When doctors miss the signs of an illness — like cancer, heart attack or stroke — they miss a critical period of time to take effective action. They miss time when a patient may be saved, or when treatment may be given to prevent further damage to the body.
If your health care provider has missed the signs of an illness, it may be medical malpractice. The lawyers at Patel & Lehman, PC, can analyze your medical records to look for signs of negligence. We frequently work with highly-qualified medical professionals who can review your case and give us their expert opinions.
We represent people who have experienced delays in diagnosis or misdiagnosis related to many different types of injuries:
- Heart attack misdiagnosis
- Stroke misdiagnosis
- Cancer misdiagnosis
- Failure to diagnose and treat HIV
At Patel & Lehman, PC, attorney Mark E. Lehman has focused his career on medical malpractice. He has both the medical knowledge and legal experience to help you achieve the best possible results in medical malpractice litigation.
His knowledge and experience has helped recover millions of dollars for clients in settlements and jury verdicts. Also, both Baku N. Patel and Mark E. Lehman are members of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, one of the most prestigious groups of trial lawyers in the United States.
When our clients succeed, the jury verdicts and settlements give them the resources to move forward with their lives. They also help compensate clients for medical bills, and for pain and suffering. More than that, taking action helps prevent future harm by sending a strong message to doctors that medical negligence is never acceptable.
